What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Silver Eagle Manufacturing Company (Silver Eagle) is recalling certain 2021 VAST20W trailer converter dollies. The ballast hanger near the rear of the frame may fail, causing part of the ballast hanger and its counterweights to fall onto the roadway.

The risk

The ballast hanger separating from the trailer dolly can become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Silver Eagle will replace the ballast hanger, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on July 14, 2022. Owners may contact Silver Eagle's customer service at 1-800-547-6792.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
